I'm in California and I'm pretty sure I'll use a few more 'sentence enhancers' that week
Noble cause, but, as a libertarian, this is the part where the government needs to butt out. Aren't there bigger problems in CA their state governement should be looking at than what is coming out of people's mouths? (which the government has no business in anyway.)

My favorite was this part.

The resolution by Assemblyman Anthony Portantino, D-La Canada Flintridge, was inspired by a South Pasadena teenager, McKay Hatch, who founded a No Cussing Club at his junior high school in 2007. His efforts to stamp out profanity have generated international attention, with 35,000 members joining the No Cussing Club's Web site.
That kid would've gotten the s**t kicked out of him in Junior High back in my day(the mid-nineties).
The thing is if California wants to promote a no-cussing week in their curent state of near-bankruptcy, they need to go the extra step and implement the swear jar.
When I was a kid we had a no-cussing contest in my house, everyone had to put a dollar in the swear jar for every cuss word, with the person with the least cusswords said got to win the prize. By the end of the week we had close to $50 courtesy of my foul-mouthed parents. California could basically solve a lot of their budget problems if they started charging swearers a $1 a cussword... Especially considering how f***ed up California is these days

The state legislature is as inept as DC, if they tackled a real issue it would just result in gridlock.
California is all about feeling good. Doesn't matter that the freakin State is broke.
